Ich bin ein Berliner.

This will never happen, for the reason the late Rush used to offer: the wives of the congresscritters listen to NPR and will tell their husbands not to defund.

Public broadcasting serves no purpose and its much vaunted “educational” content is available from a internet streaming. Let public broadcasting seek their funding from other sources such as, subscribers, telethons, foundation grants and George Soros.

“Stale Air With Terri Gross-Me-Out”
—Laura Ingraham. She once played clips of Gross being rude to Bill O’Reilly but fawning over AL Franken.
One time NPR had a feature where once a week, a 7 minute profile of a conservative figure would air on Morning Edition. Listeners complained. So tolerant that they couldn’t bear to give the other side 7 minutes per week

Certainly want them defunded. The days of Buckley, Julia Child, This Old House, and MacNeil/Lehrer, as some leavening of open debate, useful instruction, or apolitical news that allowed them to claim they weren’t actual Communists have been gone for decades.

Why was this network with government funding created?

If it’s not living up to its intended purpose then government funding should be ended.

But the network needs a chance to publicly defend itself before it is defunded.

Also, regardless of the controversy, our government needs to be looking for ways of reducing spending.

Anyone else think that the NPR stink is the latest “Get the base mad, get them contributing, and then do nothing” campaign?

I’d love for this to happen, but I doubt it will.

Nothing will change.
Republicans don’t have the backbone to defund anything.

“U.S. Rep. Bob Good, R-Va., is introducing a bill to defund NPR.”

I’m all for it, Bob, and have been for years. However, you may want to save your time and energy for when Republicans have not only the House, but also the Senate and Presidency. But just when Republicans can enact a conservative agenda by having all three is usually just when they fail to exert the effort to do so. Funny how that works.

And let’s not forget taxpayer funded PBS.
